Paraguay and Brazil will face each other in a crucial match for the second date of Group D of the Copa América 2024. Both teams are looking to get back on track after their stumbles on the first day.
Paraguay, which lost 2-1 to Colombia, needs to add three points to keep its chances of qualification alive. The team led by Daniel Garnero relies on the experience of players such as Gustavo Gómez, Junior Alonso, Ramón Sosa and Matías Rojas to achieve a good result.
Brazil, on the other hand, drew 0-0 with Costa Rica and comes into the match as favorites, but with the obligation to improve their performance. Dorival Junior’s team could make some changes in the lineup, looking for greater fluidity in the game and effectiveness in attack.

Brazil´s lineup: Alisson Becker, Danilo, Eder Militao, Marquinhos, Wendell; Bruno Guimaraes, Gomes, Savio, Lucas Paquetá, Vinicius Junior; Rodrygo.
